Penn & Teller released this documentary on their rich, bored friend who wanted to know more about famous Dutch painter Johannes Vermeer's paintings. This 4 minute clip explains a centuries-old technique that Vermeer devised and essentially took to the grave. His technique was so revolutionary that it appears he trusted no one with the secret. I guess "paint by numbers" should've been "paint by mirrors" all along. Here's the link to the whole documentary.
